Early life
At a young age, he did not get much support from his family to advance in this sector. But he grew up in a well-to-do family.

Philosophical views
Despite being born in a working class family, he feels that at the center of every job is capital based business. And there was encouragement from the family to take up that business as a career. Moreover, in the case of employment, the amount of income is limited to a certain number, but in the case of business, the amount of income depends on the effort. According to him, be it job or business, the context is different but challenges have to be faced in all situations.

In a press conference, he told Rising BD, 'Besides giving time to university classes and friends, sitting in the office on time is definitely very challenging. On the one hand, such as thinking about the exam, on the other hand, the calculation of profit and loss. But trying for career development along with education also gives some kind of peace of mind. Idle time that we could have wasted aimlessly was spent discussing with a client almost twice my age how my team and I could play a role in tailoring his business module'.
